Hi! >> Is it a bug or a feature that the ETHER-WIS MIB (RFC 3637) is named >> ETHER-WIS and not ETHER-WIS-MIB?

I was just wondering, because it is a newly published MIB module (not an update), and amoung the >180 published IETF MIB modules, there are just three "*-TC" MIBs, four very old SMIv1 MIBs, and the HOST-RESOURCES-TYPES module, which is also not a "typical" MIB, as the only exceptions. Anyway, I'm too late, so I'll have to shut up now. :-) -frank
